To the family:

Cheryl's sudden departure was a shock to us, but not to her Heavenly Father. No doubt He was well prepared for her arrival, and surely opened His arms and welcomed her home. May it comfort you that she always gave all of you the best she had to offer in this life, and an enduring love that will last a lifetime and beyond. 

My prayers and deepest sympathy,

I met Cheryl back in 1995 at Transus.  She was a crazy and outgoing person who was ALWAYS laughing!  She became a very good friend and my second mother at work for the next 4 years.  We managed to stay in touch for the next 13 years.  She'd just called me a week before passing singing her famous Happy Birthday song to me on my answering machine.  I regret erasing that message now.  I really can say she was a great and true person and I will miss her dearly.  My heart goes out to Mandy & Fam & Moses.  Love you all!

Cherly was a brought into my life without a doubt by the lord. She embraced me when I needed a friend and we became great friends. I am so thankful that we are sister in christ and the joy and words of encouragement she gave me never be forgotten. I will miss her. May she rest in the arms of our lord and savior. May God be so close to Mandy and her family and give them peace and ease the pain of their loss of a wonderful person. I will never forget you cheryl.

To my favorite aunt! And pretty much my second mom my entire life! I am sorry I couldn't make it to her memorial service. I will never forget her laugh, smile or awesome sense of humor! I am just glad knowing she is in a better place now and the pain I know she felt here is gone!!! Love to Mandy, Theo and Kasha.

Cheryl was a great friend to my mom when my mom needed a friend at that time in her life starting a new job. She had a funny personality and was such a sweet kind hearted lady. She will be missed by many and my thoughts and prayers are with her daughter and family. May she rest in peace.

I will always remember how hard Cheryl worked to take care of her most precious little girl, Mandy.  How tender her heart was to ask for prayers for God to be with her and forgive her for any shortcomings.  My prayer is for Mandy to know how terribly sorry we are for her loss and how gracious our Lord and Savior is, that he made a way for us to be together again in Heaven!  Prayers for her family and friends.  May God Bless you and Keep You! Love Always!

Rest in Peace my freind... I will miss that hugh smile, thundering laugh and a sense of humor that was like none other...

I'll remember Cheryl most for her selfless act of donating to the Locks of Love program in support of my son Will. My son was undergoing chemo treatments at the time and she donated her hair so that someone else out there could have it. And she did it in support of my son. That speaks volumes about the kind of person she was. She had a smiling face and was a pleasure to work with. My prayers go out to her family during this time. Cheryl will be warmly remembered by the team at ABF.

I am praying for the family's peace and comfort during this sad time. Cheryl brought so much joy to ABF.  I can honestly say I will never forget her, and all the laughter and love she brought to all around her.  Rest in peace, my friend!  Love,
